Thursday YO Packets have Gone Green!! 

We are excited to announce that the Thursday YO Packets are now back online and being distributed electronically via email! They can also be viewed online on the NewsLetters page. 

Note:  Many people reported that they did not receive their Electronic YO Packet, but later found the email in their SPAM or Junk Email folders.  Subscribers to AOL.com, gmail.com, tx.rr.com, and sbcglobal.net seemed to have the most problems. You might also have to add website@hightowerpta.org to your email address book or to your safe sender list.

If you would like to receive the Thursday YO Packet electronically each week, please send an email request to website@HightowerPTA.org.

WE CARE

We have added a new method of contacting the PTA.  If you have a comment or question, you can use the We Care page to send a message.


PISD eNEWS

Get weekly electronic updates on Hightower Happenings.  eNews is a free e-mail newsletter service from our district and schools.  Parents are encouraged to sign up to receive e-newsletters from the district and also individual schools (select "Hightower" for the K-5 school).

 


VOLUNTEERS

In order to volunteer in PISD, new and returning volunteers must complete an online application each year (valid July 1 to June 30).

Log on to www.pisd.edu, then click on "Volunteer Application" near the bottom of the page, or go directly to the application.  Follow the prompts to complete.  At the end of the application process, a Volunteer Agreement form will print out. You must have this form notarized.  School office personnel can notarize the form.   Keep in mind that approval generally takes one to two weeks to process.  

Volunteers who completed this form for the previous school year created a User ID and Password.  If you do not remember these, simply click on the appropriate spot on the first screen of the application to get this information.

If you have any questions about the process, please contact Debbie Price at volunteers@HightowerPTA.org.


SCHOOL STORE

Check out the online ordering capability!  A variety of school related items (notepads, pencils, water bottles, etc.) are offered for purchase.


RECYCLING

Save those old cell phones, eyeglasses, and toner and ink cartridges.  Hightower will hold a recycling drive during the school year.  It's as easy as dropping them off at the curb with your child in the morning. Something so simple can make such a huge difference! 

For information contact Donna Zeephat at environmental@HightowerPTA.org.
